it's alive

So I have heard that my blog has been removed? Hmm....well it's still here on my end. Sp here we go...
We just left Cozumel today-I had the day off and got to run around. I didn't do too much though because I'm battling a chest infection so I wasn't my typical tourist self. Instead of swimming with Dolphins and what not, I spent my time at the super market trying to teach myself Spanish, so I could purchase laundry soap, lotion, shampoo and tampons. It was quite the ordeal. The market I was in was Mexico's version of walmart...(is that an oxymoron?) So you can imagine my horror!

Then I killed a couple of hours at this place for ship crew only called No Name Bar with Ernesto (our plastic surgeon), and a couple of gals from massage. I made friends with the acupunturist, Christine yesterday-she gave me a treatment....it wasi interesting. I have a pedicure with Tandy on thursday in exchange for some training. Tomorrow I get to start my day by stretching and teaching pilates with an ocean view and the sun on my face. oh my, life is rough.

The Dr. onboard gave me some medicine for my cold. No co-pay, no fees for drugs...but I'm shellingout 10 cents per minute for the damn internet, now does that make sense?

Lastnight the crew bar hosted a wine and cheese party. My partner in crime, Tinder (the other fitness instructor) bought us of abottle of Kendall Jackson Pinot Noir...there's no place like home. lol. Then things got all sorts of crazy down at Fuse (the crew dance club on the bottom deck). Had a blast down there til 3 or so in the morning. thank God for the time change and I got an extra hour of sleep! Plus i had the day off. that was cool.

hope all of you can see this.

XOXO

  3. <- your cousin Alex btw. Perhaps you wanted Europe, but think about what this will do for your tan! Sorry to hear about the chest cold, but I am sure that when feeling better learning Spanish will be a bit more fun and a little less taxing.

    buenos noches mi chica! (I don't speak spanish, this is me pretending)

  4. Hello Michelle,

    Well, well, the next time I take Centergy from April, I’ll have to think about what it must be like doing something similar aboard ship in the warm sum, blue sky, with an occasional, drifting white cloud (no hurricanes please). Here at Seaside and Fort Stevens the weather has been amazing, like high seventies with a warm wind. Hope it holds when we fight the American Civil War all over again this coming Labor Day weekend. By the way, you mentioned a Mexican WalMart. Where I go down there, the town has the MEGA STORE. It’s huge.

    Peace and Joy,

    David
